Join Served Fresh Media for this special event (in partnership with Tribeca Film Festival and The Hatchery) featuring visionary entrepreneur, Sir Richard Branson (@richardbranson), discussing the mind-blowing technology that will power our lives in the near future.
Entrepreneur Richard Branson launched Virgin Records in 1973. Virgin Music was one of the top six record companies in the world. Branson continued to build a travel company the Voyager Group in 1980, the airline Virgin Atlantic in 1984, and a series of Virgin Megastores. Today Virgin Group holds more than 200 companies in more than 30 countries. He has expanded his businesses to include a train company, a luxury game preserve, a mobile phone company and a space-tourism company, Virgin Galactic. Branson is also known for his sporting achievements, notably the record-breaking Atlantic crossing in Virgin Atlantic Challenger II in 1986, and the first crossing by hot-air balloon of the Atlantic (1987) and Pacific (1991). He was knighted in 1999 for his contribution to entrepreneurship, and in 2009, he landed at No. 261 on Forbes' "World Billionaires" list with his $2.5 billion in self-made fortune, which includes two private islands.
